Early on in gathering her necktie collection, Linda cut up one of her favorite colored ties to make a yoyo.

The above yoyos were made with cotton and a button in the middle.

Later, she found out it was a Beatles tie! At the time the Beatles ties were not classified as vintage (not quite twenty years old). She later saw on the internet that the tie she paid $1 for was worth $25. She then started looking up vintage ties on etsy, ebay, and other internet sites. Many of her ties looked a lot like those labeled “vintage.” Linda has since then included some vintage ties in her vintage shop. Her Beatles tie collection has since expanded. She also has a collection of J.Garcia ties, Christmas ties, cartoon character ties, and designer brand ties.
